Best Answer

Alexander married Roxanna as a political move as part of his drive to assimilate the Persian Empire into the Greek civic and cultural model. He had relationships with other males and females, and at least two other marriages. With no direct evidence of his motives, the assumption is that he married Roxanna for political reasons, just as he had all his leading soldiers marry Persian women, and recruited 30,000 Persian youths into his army, to promote a bond with the conquered people.
